what should I do with the check?
« on: July 21, 2009, 12:41:28 pm »
It seems kind of silly, but I would like to know what is the best way to do with the check? should I cash it first or deposit directly in my bank account? and do I have to do tax at the end of the year?

I think with any money you make as long as it doesnt exceed like $500 a year you shouldnt have to claim it for taxes. :thumbsup:

that helps a lot. So I can just deposit the check (under $500) to my bank without worrying all the tax duty at the end of the year, right?
thank you!!!!

If you should make over $500 in a one year time period you would get a 1099. Funny thing about the stupid IRS is that those jerks even have the nerve to say that if you have say a Mary Kay party and the rep gives you a free item for hosting the party you are supposed to claim the value of the product as income LOL !?! WTF !?! Greedy sobs.

Yea anything above 500 is taxes. Sad but true. Well you could cash it in and make some interest  :thumbsup: Or take pics of the cash and make a blog about this site, who knows!

I do taxes for a national co January thru April. IRS rules state that ALL income is to be reported when filing. But most follow the premise of not having to report amounts less than $500 in a year from a company. Companies do not have to give a form 1099 for less than $500.
